Abilities
Summary: Strong, swift martial artist. Can use his "Power Shades" to transform into a gigantic quadruped tiger.
Weapon of choice: Bare fists
Fighting style: Martial arts

Personality analysis
Summary: Calculating and firm. Shows great concern for his comrades. Rather affectionate towards young girls due to his past.

Motto: "...helping others is never an inconvenience."
Inventory: "Power Shades"

Relationships
Fond of: Shaokaola
Likes: Chicky
Annoyed with: Powell
Note: Even though THAT episode is named "Delacao's First Love", he does not actually have any passion for "that young girl". She only reminded him of Shaokaola, whom he thought gone forever. (Proof: he agreed to babysit the young girl found inside the bamboo stalk)

Miscellaneous description
Often found in a green jacket held by straps, with matching light green shirt and pants, Delacao stands among the tallest of the team. His developed muscles, hidden by his sharp, yellow-orange fur (along with the occasional stripe) show years of wear and training from martial arts.

Highlights
(Episode: The Blue Bird) He almost gets killed trying to save Chicky. In fact, he should already be dead after a huge bear-trap clamps across his waist. But he escaped with a wide bandage around his waist, and a splinted right arm. Afterwards, Chicky asks him why he did that, and he speaks his quote. (He also spoke that quote when he encouraged Powell to overcome his fear.)

Developments After the Series
Unanimously nominated the new leader of the 'Rangers, Delacao sets out to do his job, starting out by spending a lot of time encouraging his best friend Shaokaola. His own martial art classes are going fine, and sometimes he contemplates of taking Shaokaola in as a student.

Speaking of leading, the team he is to lead does not exist anymore...

Name Analysis
No ideas so far as to what "Delacao" means.
(Japanese) "Gaou" is associated with the roar of a tiger.

Fun Stuff
Characters reminded of: Ryo Hazuki, the main character of Shenmue; Domon Ishijima ("Max Domon") from Flame of Recca (Flame of Recca again?); Boman Delgado from Rival Schools; Yashiro Nanakase from King of Fighters 97-98
My Rating: 8/10
